Chili Dinner Fundraiser

General Information for Scouts and their Families

 

Dear Troop 350 Scout,

 

As a member of troop 350, you have the chance to experience exciting events all year long.  Only one of these troop-sponsored events, the annual Chili Dinner, is a fundraiser for your troop.  This year’s Chili Dinner will be held in St. John’s cafeteria, on Saturday February 21st from 4PM to 7PM.

We didn’t have a Chili Dinner last year, so some of you may not know how it works.  Here’s the deal…

 

  • Each scout sells at least 10 tickets at $5 each. Tickets will also be for sale at the door.
  • Each patrol is assigned a chili recipe.
  • Each family cooks about gallon of chili (from the patrol recipe) and a desert.
  • On-site Dutch-oven cooking supplements the desert selection (and maybe cornbread).
  • Like-recipe chili is combined at the event.
  • Sodas and Tea will be provided.
  • Boys work, adults supervise.
  • Chili, drinks and desserts are enjoyed by all.  Hot dogs will be available as well.
  • “Dine in” or “To Go”.
  • Proceeds go to fund Troop 350 for 2009.
  • Each scout has received 12 tickets. Cut them out with scissors. 
  • Do your best to sell at least 10 tickets. 
  • If you plan to eat, you will need to purchase a ticket for yourself.
  • Submit money and any unsold tickets with you the day of the event.
